Welcome to the forum! You got really lucky to have scooped one up and who knows what other delays could have been seen for the one you had on order. Are you coming from another Volvo or new to the brand?

Hello everyone,
I was fortunate to get a call a couple of weeks ago from the dealership where I had an XC40 R-design on order, saying that they had received one, and the person for whom it had been ordered was not going to take it. I was not expecting to take delivery of mine until next February at the earliest, so I dashed down to see it, and bought it that day. It is red with the black roof, fully loaded, and it is spectacular!
It has taken quite a bit of time in the car to learn all of its features, and I’m sure I don’t know them all yet. I had actually forgotten about the foot-waving opening back door, until I saw someone’s post about it! The sensors and backup cameras all seem very good, but I’ve turned off the lane departure system thing, because it was kind of weird - it was fighting me, and I want to decide where to go, not have the car do it for me. I have not yet tried the parking assist. I would like to hear from other people how that is working out for them?
All in all, I’m really happy with my purchase, and I’m looking forward to seeing other peoples’ comments and pictures of their cars as they get them.
Cheers!
